Class Action Defense Fight Fire With Fire

Technology provides the plaintiffs’ bar with effective tools to collaborate and recruit individuals to serve as class representatives, adding another dimension to an already creative and aggressive class action litigation environment. We provide skilled advocacy inside and outside the courtroom, counseling our clients in terms of implementing consumer-facing programs to minimize the risk of class litigation and, if litigation is commenced, to establish cost-effective defense strategies and minimize exposure.
